Ti rewinds slightly in this world.
With a flash of light, the view was replaced by a new scene.
Now, everything in sight was no longer Lady Yasaka's ancient residence but a world entirely built in pure white, glowing with white light everywhere.
This was Heaven.
"Lady Gabriel~"
The angels coming and going imdiately greeted the number one beauty of Heaven beside him.
At the sa ti, many looked at him with confusion, as his identity had not yet been publicly disclosed throughout Heaven.
"I'm truly sorry~"
Gabriel cast an apologetic glance.
Currently, the fact that he had been confird as the new God had not yet been announced in Heaven.
It wasn't that they didn't want to disclose it, but the timing wasn't right. They needed to thoroughly cleanse Heaven and the Church first, ensuring no malicious individuals were hiding within.
After all, they didn't want this new Lord to suddenly face any unexpected harm.
Even though he appeared quite powerful, they still needed to guard against hidden threats.
Moreover, her apology also stemd from regret that they couldn't directly transport him to the upper levels.
Although he was confird as the new Lord, he couldn't directly teleport to the highest level of Heaven since he hadn't been officially registered there yet—this was a precaution against sudden invasions of Heaven.
"There's no need to apologize. You haven't done anything wrong."
Renji's response caused the foremost beauty of Heaven to reveal a trace of lancholy in her expression.
Thus, Gabriel slightly parted her lips but ultimately swallowed her words.
She could sense that in his eyes, coming to the angel's side to beco the new God of the Bible was rely a transactional arrangent.
This shifted the nature of his apparent concern for Heaven, which couldn't help but dampen her spirits.
No, this was only natural.
After all, soone who originally had no connection with this world's Heaven would naturally react this way when suddenly accepting an unfamiliar faction.
Therefore, she needed to work hard to help him integrate into Heaven's big family as quickly as possible, where everyone could live in harmony.
Yes, it was definitely possible.
Cheering herself on internally.
In the blink of an eye, they arrived at an elevator.
Two people had already been waiting there for so ti.
"K-King Solomon-sama~"
An excited voice escaped the lips of the golden-haired nun.
"King Solomon-sama~"
A seemingly more respectful and steady tone ca from the other—Xenovia.
Though she tried to keep her voice from sounding too improper, she still ca across as sowhat excited.
The two had been sent to Heaven via teleportation magic earlier that morning when Michael, who had co to Kuoh Town, instructed them to wait there after Gabriel departed for Kyoto to find him.
He might visit Heaven before returning to Kuoh Town.
Thus, compared to the angels, these two who were closer to him had co to Heaven first to accompany him, hoping they could help bridge his relationship with Heaven.
"Hmm"
Renji nodded lightly and patted one person's head—Asia.
Giving this sowhat silly and adorable nun head pats had beco a habitual action.
So—
"U-um, can I also..."
Xenovia stamred, looking embarrassed, but Renji could tell what she wanted from her eyes.
Thus, he similarly patted her head, making her display a blissful expression.
Well then, ti to head toward the elevator.
As it turned out, his sleeve was tugged slightly, and the beautiful angel with twelve wings gazed at him with dewy eyes.
"May I too?"
This angel also wanted one, so she received the sa head pat treatnt.
In that instant, she revealed an especially radiant smile—one that was particularly pure and innocent, like a child's.
No, even more pure and innocent than a child.
Such an expression appearing on a woman with the appearance of an angel—correction, she was an angel—or rather, a mature woman who could be described as top-tier even among goddesses, created an unexpected gap moe that montarily made Renji dazed.
Having encountered various won in different places, this was truly his first ti seeing such an incredibly pure and innocent onee-san type.
"Let's go"
"Mhm~"
Gabriel smiled sweetly once more and led the group into the elevator.
In the blink of an eye, they reached the Sixth Heaven, the realm where the Seraphim resided.
But this was not the final destination; the ultimate goal was the Seventh Heaven.
Upon arriving at the Sixth Heaven, no other Seraphs ca to greet them. This wasn't because the Seraphs refused to accept their new Lord, but because they were all frantically conducting inspections across Heaven, not wanting any mishaps to occur when the new Lord arrived that might disappoint him...
Gabriel had explained this to him earlier.
Finally, they stepped into the Seventh Heaven.
Normally, only Seraphs were permitted to enter the Seventh Heaven, and Asia and Xenovia would never have been allowed.
However, to foster more goodwill from their new Lord toward Heaven, the two were permitted to accompany him.
Thus, upon entering the Seventh Heaven, their vision shifted once more, and what greeted the eyes of these two devotees was a structure bathed in exceptionally radiant holy light.
This structure was neither as grand nor as magnificent as the temples where the Seraphs resided in the Sixth Heaven below; instead, it appeared quite simple.
Then, only Gabriel and Renji entered the building.
Asia and Xenovia were not forbidden from entering, but the temple was far too special. As devotees, they instinctively felt it was not a place they should enter.
Moreover, the holy light was far too intense—so intense that their consciousness felt as if it were being purified, leaving their minds utterly blank and devoid of thought, causing them to stand there in a daze.
"This is the system created by the Lord who made us," Gabriel led him to the true core of Heaven.
"Hmm," Renji nodded and stepped forward, making contact with the system left behind by the God of the Bible of this world.
Watching from behind, Gabriel was extrely nervous. She wasn't worried that he might damage the system, but rather anxious about whether the system could be made to function properly.
If it could operate normally, Heaven would grow stronger, and new angels could be born.
Ever since the God who created them had died, the number of angels had been steadily decreasing.
Although they had managed to increase the number of angels through another thod later on, the conditions for it were far too troubleso.
That condition was to bear the next generation of angels by uniting with humans.
But it wasn't as simple as just engaging in such acts with humans; during the process, one's mind had to be completely free of any desire for it.
If any such desire existed, they would fall.
And so, after an unknown amount of ti had passed, the new Lord before her remained with his eyes closed, still touching the system.
Suddenly, he furrowed his brows slightly, his body appearing as if it were engaged in intense exertion, consuming stamina and breaking into a sweat.
Therefore, Gabriel couldn't just stand by and watch; she needed to care for her Lord, whose body was still human.
